Una Beretta pa seguridad
A Beretta for protection
Al que se meta le va a tronar, hazte p'allá
Those who step up will feel the blast, get out of the way
Traigo metales como mi apá
I carry metals like my dad
De los cerros a la escuela, me fui a enseñar, me fui a inculcar
From the hills to school, I went to teach, I went to instill
No ando en la quema, me di a respetar
I'm not about the burning, I earned my respect
Porque jalo derecho, pues sé trabajar, de eso ni hablar
Because I go straight, I know how to work, no need to discuss it
He enamorao varias plebes por ahí
I've charmed several girls out there
A toditas las quiero, todas por igual; me oigo mentar
I love them all, equally; I hear them calling me
Me distingue la humildad
Humility is what sets me apart
A veces a pata y otras en carro, pero se me ha de mirar
Sometimes on foot and other times in a car, but you’ll see me around
Un tequilita y la música
A little tequila and the music
Me jalo la banda pa amenizar; hay muchachas
I brought the band to liven things up; there are girls
Botas, sombrero, como mi pa
Boots, hat, just like my dad
Yo sí soy ranchero, me fui a inculcar buenas cosas
I am indeed a rancher, I went to instill good values
Chulo el caballo para bailar
Beautiful horse for dancing
Todo controlado, no brincan la cerca por acá
Everything under control, they don't jump the fence around here
Enemigos, muchos me sobran
Enemies, I have plenty
Pero solo tiran puro blablablá, no hacen más
But they just throw out pure blah blah blah, they don't do anything more
Me distingue la humildad
Humility sets me apart
A veces a pata y otras en carro, pero se me ha de mirar
Sometimes on foot and other times in a car, but I will be seen
